Phase Converter Selector - Shop by Equipment

Sizing Wizard

Welcome to our phase converter selection tool. Select your equipment from the dropdown below, and we'll help determine the right size phase converter based on typical load categories. We recommend NL models for your needs. Additionally, for larger setups, DualZone models are available as an option. DualZone phase converters are sometimes necessary because they might not have enough utility service to start a single larger converter, by dividing the starting process into zones. The service kVA should be higher than or equal to the converter HP for reliable operation.

Detailed Sizing Guide

Phase converters are sized based on load type, with specific multipliers:

Load Type Multiplier Examples
Easy Load 1x Saws, Drill Press, Milling Machines
Medium Load 1.5x Mixers, Small Lathes
Hard Load 2x Lathes, CNC Machines, Pumps, Press Brake, Wide Belt Sander
Very Hard Load 2.5x Air Compressors, HVAC, Fans, Hydraulic Presses
Resistive Loads 1 HP per Amp Welders, Battery Chargers, Ovens

Sized by the largest load, calculated by a professional, typically based on total HP of equipment running simultaneously.

Check utility power at the main breaker panel or determine the size of the utility transformer (e.g., 15 KVA, 25 KVA, 50 KVA, etc.), as KVA indicates available amperage. Ensure KVA is larger than the HP of the phase converter; for example, a 50 KVA (200 amps) service cannot start a 60 HP converter, but a DualZone 30/60 can be used for 60 HP total. For high voltage (460-480V) single-phase power, consult a sales representative.

Safety and compliance with state/local regulations are emphasized, with UL-listed phase converters recommended. If power is insufficient for starting but adequate for running, DualZone Phase Converters can be utilized. Converters can be expanded by pairing multiple units (e.g., a 30 HP and 20 HP converter can make a 50 HP system). Professional sizing assistance is available by calling 888-379-3481 or emailing for multiple equipment setups.

Additional Notes

  • If your equipment isn't listed, contact support for assistance.
  • Ensure your utility power can support the converter (e.g., breaker panel size should exceed converter HP).
  • For high voltage (460V+) or complex setups, contact support.
